Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

"Cough, Luo..."

Yern cleared his throat and then asked, "If you agree that the main research direction for the future will be 'human modification' based on 'evolutionary theory,' then how do you plan to conduct the research?"

After a pause, Yann added, "Even the prettiest beast-eared girls aren't of much help to the current situation on the high seas."

After all, given the current physical strength and power levels of the strong individuals in this vast ocean, even if Luo were to gain a stable grasp of the ability to develop beast-eared girls and eventually integrate a beast-eared girl army, could he really expect to use the beast-eared girl army to charge and kill those top-tier strong individuals in the ocean?

As Luo listened to Yann's questioning, he stroked his chin and turned his gaze back to the beast-eared girl lying on the ground, baring her teeth, and muttered something to himself.

"It seems that this already meets Lord Yern's aesthetic standards."

?

"What are you trying to say?" Ya'en asked.

Hearing the somewhat dangerous tone in Yann's voice, Luo quickly explained.

"No, no, no, Lord Yern, although this giant wolf is close to humans in terms of its evolutionary structure, it has serious failures and defects in many other details."

"For example, it has a mouth that is half missing, eyes that are different sizes, arms that are different lengths, skin ulcers, etc., and its consciousness has not adapted to the evolution of its body at all."

"However, to avoid frightening Lord Arn, the appearance of this giant wolf was modified by me using my 'surgical ability'—well, a minor modification..."

Before Luo could finish speaking, Yann waved his hand, already losing interest in listening.

For Law, who simultaneously possesses the abilities of "Operation Fruit" and "Evil Consort," it is indeed as he said that he can "tramplively" modify living beings.

This level of refinement is considered merely a minor embellishment?

"call……"

Yaen took a breath, composed himself, and began, "Just tell me your research plan. I'm sure you've already prepared."

Then, Luo took out a plan and handed it to Ya'en, saying...

"In fact, Lord Yern has already discovered this, hasn't he? During the normal evolutionary process, organisms will produce various... uh, deformities. For example, even though I forcibly used the 'Op-Op Fruit' and various medicines to continuously modify the giant wolf and maintain its life, the final result still deviated significantly from perfect evolution."

"I never quite understood how the correct and perfect evolutionary direction is maintained in nature, and I wanted to find this direction before Lord Arne arrived to gain his approval."

"However, I now understand that in normal evolution, the race constantly selects the relatively correct evolutionary direction through the elimination of a large population, and then continuously strives for perfection to ensure that the race as a whole does not fall into the wrong and abnormal evolutionary results."

Yann frowned and asked, "So?"

"Therefore, by controlling and studying variables, and using the abilities of the 'Evil Consort' and the 'Op-Op Fruit' to replace the sheer number of races, we can find the correct path in evolution..."

Luo spoke with a somewhat manic smile.

"As long as the correct route is recorded, we will eventually be able to create a perfect world where everyone is immune to all diseases and has no physical defects."

Yann stared intently at Luo, at this teenager whose seemingly innocent eyes were filled with madness.

It's like a delusional teenager desperately and obsessively trying to create a world that's almost impossible to exist.

Luo was completely unaware of the terrifying nature of this idea, which could very well unleash unimaginable evil.

"Human experimentation of any kind is prohibited without my permission."

In the end, Yann left behind these words.

After returning to the room that Law had arranged for him in the laboratory living area, Yann made a point of reviewing all the intelligence that Law had recorded within the Revolutionary Army.

Luo's change is a bit too drastic.

Although this level of change doesn't qualify as a complete "darkening" or "degeneration," his personality and way of thinking have clearly undergone a completely different transformation from the past.

This change must have occurred during the two years that both Yann and Corazon neglected Luo.

Immediately afterward, Yann's gaze fell upon a statistical table showing that 90,770 citizens of Frevans had been healed by Law through the "Op-Op Fruit" and "Evil Queen" abilities, while eleven had failed to be healed.

Upon seeing the detailed list of names on the failed healing attempts, even Yaen's eyes narrowed involuntarily.

Trafalgar Saro

[Chapter 388. Terrifying Spiritual Pressure]

Trafalgar Saro.

The hospital director of the new "Frevans" national residence, the leading figure in research on how to treat "lead poisoning" before Luo, and also Luo's... father.

In Arn's memory, the doctor was quite gentle and patient, and always had a hopeful smile on his face.

"That kid Ro... he must have been so desperate back then, right?"

"Ya'en murmured."

He cured nearly 100,000 patients with "lead poisoning" day and night, but failed in eleven cases, one of which happened to be his father.

The sense of despair and helplessness was simply unimaginable.

"No wonder when I contacted Luo to propose setting up a laboratory, Luo's reaction was even more enthusiastic than mine. Is that why?"

It has to be said that both Yann and Corazon have overlooked Luo's situation over the past two years.

Or perhaps, Yann and Corazon subconsciously believed that with the power of the "Evil Consort" and the protection of the Revolutionary Army in the North Sea, Law's safety was not a concern at all, and thus they neglected this issue.

However, at this stage, Luo's performance in his research has only shown a considerable degree of radicalism and persistence, and Yann has not criticized Luo for anything.

"We should find an opportunity to tell Corazon about this, and let Corazon subtly guide Law. Hopefully, Law's current wishes aren't twisted..."

As for the experimental issues, unless Yann forcibly strips the "Evil Consort" of her power, Luo will probably continue to conduct the experiments privately even without the laboratory.

Rather than doing that, it would be easier to notice Luo's changes if everything were made public.

Moreover, it cannot be denied that if Luo's experiment proceeds smoothly, it may not be impossible for it to be realized.

"Giant wolves have evolved to anthropomorphic forms over tens of thousands of years. So what form would humans take if they evolved for another ten thousand years?"

Yaen stroked his chin, feeling that there was too much uncontrollability involved, making it impossible to predict.

……

In the days that followed, Yann kept an eye on Law's condition and research progress while waiting for Hancock and Robin to give birth.

As for the Kuja ship, after circling the North Blue for a short time, it sailed directly into the Calm Belt, creating the illusion that Hancock and Yann were still with the Kuja Pirates.

Several weeks passed quickly.

Finally... that important day has arrived!

Outside the delivery room, Yann remained calm as he sat on a bench, browsing the newspaper in his hand, as if the cries of pain that occasionally rang in his ears did not exist.

However, Luo could clearly feel that Yann's breathing rate was much faster than before, and his attention was less on the content of the newspaper and more on the movements inside the delivery room.

"Lord Yann, the delivery plan has been discussed many times, and the two attending physicians are both renowned doctors from Beihai. Everything will go smoothly."

Despite looking quite young, Luo spoke with a very mature tone.

A smile appeared on Yann's face with difficulty, but when the moment actually arrived, he couldn't maintain the calm he usually had.

The continuation of life, the bond of blood, the inheritance of will...

More importantly, Hancock and Robin entered the delivery room almost at the same time, as if they wanted to compete in this aspect, which caught Yann off guard.

Even so, Yann maintained his Observation Haki and enveloped the entire deserted island to prevent any unexpected visitors from appearing.

Suddenly, Yann frowned slightly, turned his gaze to Luo, and said, "I... I seem to be feeling a little distracted..."

"Lord Yann, is it because you're too nervous, so..." Luo showed a gentle comforting tone rarely seen in his usual laboratory setting.

As Yann further expanded the range of his Observation Haki, he did not detect anything unusual, but the feeling of being out of his mind grew stronger.

"No, something bad is definitely about to happen."

Ahn suddenly stood up, trusting that inexplicable intuition, and spoke.

"Order the laboratory to enter a state of emergency, halt research, all researchers to the secure room, security personnel..."

Before Yann could finish speaking, a baby's cry suddenly came from inside the delivery room.

"Whoosh!"

Immediately, a smile of surprise and joy bloomed on Yann's face, but almost instantly, Yann's expression changed.

"That feeling is..."

The next moment, from inside the delivery room, accompanied by the baby's cries, a terrifying spiritual pressure was suddenly released.

"boom!"

A sudden explosion erupted inside the delivery room, the door was blasted open instantly, and the terrifying pressure emanating from spiritual pressure enveloped the entire deserted island almost in an instant.

"Bang bang bang bang bang..."

Many medical staff outside the delivery room rolled their eyes and collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious.

Or rather, it wasn't just this area outside the delivery room; all the creatures on the entire deserted island were stunned by the burst of spiritual pressure at that moment.

Even Luo, who possesses the power of "Evil Consort," experienced a moment of blurred vision and began to sway precariously.

"Damn it, where did that terrifying spiritual pressure come from?!"

In the blink of an eye, Yann rushed directly into the delivery room.

The delivery room was in complete disarray, with medical equipment scattered all over the floor and all the medical staff unconscious.

An infant lay in the arms of a medical worker, crying loudly and releasing terrifying spiritual pressure uncontrollably.

"How could this be?!"

Ahn stared at the scene in disbelief, never expecting that the source of the spiritual pressure was his newborn child!

Monster, right?!

This level of power is comparable to more than ten cartloads of spiritual pressure, and it would be enough to unleash the "Bankai" of a regular Zanpakuto.

“Brother...Ya'en, child...child…”

Robin's weak voice startled Arn, who quickly picked up the baby.

However, before Yann could even comfort the still-crying baby, Hancock, who was separated from the baby by the curtain on the other side, suddenly let out a muffled groan.

Then, another baby cried.

more importantly……

"boom!"

Another burst of spiritual pressure, almost tangible, erupted and spread out in all directions.
